Dracaena 'Song of India'

Dracaena Song of India is one of the most cheerful and architectural plants in the Dracaena family. Its narrow, arching leaves are a vivid combination of deep green centers and bright golden-yellow margins, giving the whole plant a warm, glowing quality that lights up any corner it occupies. It grows upright with a natural elegance, branching over time into a multi-stemmed form that becomes more impressive with age.

Good for beginners? Yes. Dracaena is one of the most adaptable and forgiving houseplants available. It tolerates lower light, inconsistent watering, and most home conditions without drama.

Safe for cats and dogs? Dracaena is toxic to pets if ingested. Keep out of reach of cats and dogs, or explore our pet-safe plant collection.

Light needs: Medium to bright indirect light keeps the yellow variegation most vivid. It tolerates lower light but the golden margins may become less defined. Avoid direct sun which can scorch the leaf tips.

Care at a glance: Water when the top inch of soil is dry. Dracaenas are sensitive to fluoride in tap water — use filtered water where possible to prevent brown tips. Feed monthly in spring and summer. Avoid cold drafts and temperatures below 60°F.
